# Use Listen

> Start a live session, confirm audio sources, follow the transcript and Live Insights, then stop and save.

Listen captures the audio sources you select for a live session and presents a transcript with Live Insights.

## Start a live session

1. Check that the intended microphone is selected.
2. On Windows, choose system-audio sharing if you need it for this session.
3. Start Listen and confirm the session is receiving audio.

## Follow the session

- Read the live transcript as audio is processed.
- Use Live Insights as context, not as a substitute for checking the conversation.
- If audio changes, verify the connected device and selected input.

## Stop and save

Stop Listen when the conversation ends. The saved session is then available for review in Meetings.
